I have been trying to make healthy snacks and food for the past week, the kids love this (and so do I), carrots dipped in avo dip with herb salt and a tiny dash of sour cream, yum!
Dehydrated zucchini / courgettes, our new “chips”, I sliced these very thin, sprinkled some herb salt on them and placed them in the dehydrator for 6 hours on a low heat, 115 F , 45 deg C. If you don’t have a dehydrator, you can also dry out veggies in the oven on a low setting, these are SO crunchy and crispy, just like chips should be. I must confess, I love eating packet shop bought potato crisps and I know they aren’t good for me, so I thought if I could replace them with something healthy like veggie chips, that might work, we’ll see…
Today, I’m making beetroot and sweet potato chips with herb salt on them, can’t wait to try these, they are my favourite from the health store, now I’m making my own. Oh, by the way, my dehydrator is called an Excalibur, a wonderful machine.
We’ve had a few bird visitors in our garden, this is a very noisy Wood Hoepoe, they always arrive in groups, making exceptionally loud noises and dancing on the branches, amazing characters.

The reality of my kitchen sink today… oh boy, I need to sort this out!
Just had to share a project from The Guardian Owl test knit so far, this owl has been knitted by Gea who lives in the Netherlands, I love him!
Have a week filled with goodness dear friends.
